DALLAS — Lufthansa Technik becomes the first Boeing-licensed Service Center (BLSC) for cabin modifications on 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
Lufthansa Technik is authorized as a BLSC to carry out interior modifications on the 787 in the capacity of an outside maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) service provider. Boeing says the two sides will keep working to complete the requirements so that in 2025 Lufthansa Technik may begin working on its first 787 cabin remodeling project.
The BLSC will bring more capability to Boeing's current 787 Interior Modifications options for the market.This deal for 787 cabin improvements comes after Lufthansa Technik Malta completed the first 787 Dreamliner base maintenance event in April.
Lufthansa Technik will also handle the certification of the modification projects in addition to the license that Boeing has awarded. The well-known long-haul widebody's cabin upgrades will be carried out at one of the MRO provider's global network locations.
